Second, don't RP with strawmen and you'll be good to go
That's good advice for Changelings in general, fetches or otherwise.

The best interpretation of the binding of Isaac that I ever heard
You and I played very different video games.

@surreality said in Real World Peeves, Disgruntlement, and Irks.:
'a great sword and sorcery novel'.
Not really. The author relies on a fuckton of deus ex machinas to make things work.
Well. I mean. I think it's just deus in that case.
@Rinel said in Real World Peeves, Disgruntlement, and Irks.:
Should have read the Revelation to John
Oh I did, but that's clearly just someone's fanfiction.
@Kestrel said in Real World Peeves, Disgruntlement, and Irks.:
great world-building
Eh, it was a little provincial for me.

The more reasonable people are the ones who would take things at face value, and not assume the worst.
You must be new here.

But any further discussion of the topic will make @Ganymede want to hit me.
This presumes I don't already want to do so.
Sounds like a lot of work, to me.
@GreenFlashlight From what I recall they're peppered through the early parts, more than once...
But any further discussion of the topic will make @Ganymede want to hit me.
@Rinel I know, and it's great!
Apparently even the commandment that we read as "thou shalt not kill" was actually "thou shalt do no murder."
@saosmash said in Real World Peeves, Disgruntlement, and Irks.:
@Rinel Let's not bicker and argue about who killed who.
Hey, just because I killed someone it doesn't mean I'm guilty!
@Pacha said in Diversity Representation in MU*ing:
My particular point is that I think it would be nice if there were more roster characters that were unambiguously written as being LGBTQIA
While I agree in theory, in principle I don't. The ideal roster character, in my view, is one that has a story but with details to be worked out by the player. The more room for player-driven customisation the better.
I definitely prefer the more ambiguous rosters. Much better than Firan's days where someone's dark secret would be homosexuality.
@HelloProject Time to report that shit to whichever advisory board licenses therapists.
@JinShei said in Real World Peeves, Disgruntlement, and Irks.:
@Tinuviel Yes! I mean, there was one point where a crash suggests someone flipped a table!
And this is the BBC JinShei Service. Police action was undertaken today at the house just up the road. That bint that puts her bins out on the wrong day and her useless husband entered into a verbal dispute on the subject of unpurchased milk. The bint elected to mention three other times her useless husband was unable to complete a single task, at which point the husband flipped the large table, sending three plates crashing to the floor. These plates, it was later revealed, were a wedding gift from the bint's late mother and their destruction is, quote, "just more proof that he doesn't really care."
More on this story as it develops.
@JinShei said in Real World Peeves, Disgruntlement, and Irks.:
My delightful neighbours had a proper cat-fight domestic in their garden last night at midnight. I'm so tired I want to kill people. Mostly them. I also don't want to know half the details and not the preceding event. Is it rude to knock on their door and say "Look, I know that one of the women said something but WHAT WAS IT?"
All local news channels should investigate such disturbances so that those forced to listen to them can at least understand the context.
@Ominous said in Real World Peeves, Disgruntlement, and Irks.:
(Though, not really, because catgut is a misnomer caused by confusion of the word kitgut.)
There's some debate about that. Some sources claim it's an abbreviation of cattle gut.

Looks like he had a pretty negative experience just now.
That's what I'm known for.
Ask anyone.
@BroadStreetBully said in Diversity Representation in MU*ing:
I specifically avoid games run by people who harp on about this sort of thing. Please don't do this. It really hurts your reputation.
Given there's over six hundred posts in this thread... what are you referencing specifically?
@Rinel said in Real World Peeves, Disgruntlement, and Irks.:
Why are you like this
I teach. The number of times I've read plagiarised works with just the names changed... it'd be nice to have the opposite.
